DWYANE WADE IS A SAFE PLAY IN NEW WEEK

Daniel Dobish, Staff WriterMarch 24, 2013

We have just three and a half weeks
remaining in the National Basketball Association regular season.
Fantasy playoffs are underway, or are about the get underway. For
those in Rotisserie formats, it is not too late to make some late
tweaks to make up ground in certain categories.

Miami Heat SG Dwyane Wade (knee) missed
Sunday’s game against the Charlotte Bobcats due to a sore right
knee. He was dinged up early last week and had been playing through
the pain, but apparently the pain was too much or head coach Erik
Spoelstra felt playing against an inferior opponent would be a good
time for D-Wade to take a rest. Either way, the Heat have four
games in the upcoming week and no back-to-back situations, so Wade
should be a safe play for Fantasy owners.

If you’re a Fantasy owner of Toronto Raptors F Rudy
Gay (back), you might not be as lucky. He has missed
several games in the month of March due to back issues, and head
coach Dwane Casey admitted Sunday that the club will discuss
shutting him down “sooner rather than later.” That makes him a
tremendously risky play going forward.
